Paul

The critical consensus

Happily, Paul is the film’s greatest asset. A fantastically realised CG creation who gets all the funniest lines and is brilliantly voiced by Seth Rogen, he’s the spark of originality that makes this film worthwhile.

At two hours, Paul goes on too long with almost as many endings as Lord Of The Rings. There's still a lot of goodwill towards Pegg and Frost, despite Run Fatboy Run and The Boat That Rocked, but this ET feels phoned in.
